There are only four games on today, starting in...

Raleigh, as the Carolina Hurricanes host the Phoenix Coyotes. Mike Smith and Anton Khudobin are given the starting nods. Phoenix led off in the first period with a Mikkel Boedker goal, his second of the season, coming on the power play from Shane Doan and Derek Morris. Carolina tied it with an Eric Staal goal, his second of the year, going in unassisted goal. The Hurricanes took the lead in the second period with a Riley Nash goal, via Ryan Murphy and Jay Harrison. The Coyotes evened the score again on a Rob Klinkhammer goal, guided in by Paul Bissonnette and Tim Kennedy. Cam Ward relieved Khudobin midway through the period. Phoenix took the lead as Lauri Korpikoski scored, with the help of Mike Ribeiro and David Moss. Carolina tied it again with a power play goal by Jeff Skinner, his second of the season, powered by Nathan Gerbe. The Coyotes retook the lead on a Klinkhammer goal, his second of the game, fueled by Zbynek Michalek and the goalie Smith. Phoenix added on as Doan scored a power play goal, passed from Radim Vrbata and David Schlemko. This held up for a 5-3 win, with the three stars going to Klinkhammer, Doan, and Nash.

Down in Florida, the Panthers welcome the Los Angeles Kings. Ben Scrivens and Jacob Markstrom are the young goalies. Los Angeles got going in the second period with a Dan Carcillo goal, fueled by Mike Richards and Jordan Nolan. The Kings added on as Justin Williams scored his second of the season, with a lone assist by Anze Kopitar. Los Angeles extended the lead as Nolan scored, with helpers provided by Jarret Stoll and Carcillo. This was good for a 3-0 win, with the three stars going to Scrivens (20 save shutout), Carcillo, and Nolan.

Way to the west, the Anaheim Ducks host the Ottawa Senators. Craig Anderson and Jonas Hiller are in the creases. Anaheim opened in the first period on a Corey Perry goal, his second of the season, assisted by Pat Maroon and Ryan Getlzaf.

The Ducks extended the lead with a Nick Bonino goal, his second of the season, going in unassisted. The final stood at 4-1 Ducks, with the three stars being Perry, Getzlaf, and Lindholm.

Finally, we head northeast to Winnipeg, where the Jets bring in the New Jersey Devils. Cory Schneider and Al Montoya are the masked men. Winnipeg started in the second period with an Evander Kane goal, his second of the season, coming shorthanded via Mark Stuart and Bryan Little. The Jets added on in the third period on another Kane goal, his second of the game and third of the year, an empty net goal, set up by Olli Jokinen and Michael Frolik.
